Celebrities at Christmas: Gary Barlow might get a new baby this Christmas

Gary Barlow has said he and pregnant wife Dawn may get an unexpected Christmas present this year - a new daughter.

The Take That star explained: “We are on emergency over Christmas. [Dawn is] due on January 17 - but both of our other children were really early.”

And those other children - eight year old Daniel and six year old Emily - are getting excited about the prospect of a new sibling: “Daniel and Emily have been blabbing to anyone who will listen that Mummy and Daddy are having a little girl.

“It was meant to be a secret - but the cat is well and truly out of the bag now.”

Gary and former dancer Dawn celebrate their ninth wedding anniversary next month.
